Portable water barriers are non-absorbent, water-filled PVC bunds designed to prevent spills from spreading. Containment barriers provide effective and immediate stormwater protection in the event of a spill. Portable water barriers are designed as emergency or temporary bunding for drains or grates and their advantage over sand barriers is they are easily stored in a small space. Portable water barriers however are slower to install and can sometimes be more difficult to reposition than sand barriers. Water filled barriers form physical barriers to: protect stormwater drains contain spills on factory floors protect drains inside factories prevent rainwater from entering an area Portable water barriers are non-absorbent barriers used to contain or divert oil, fuel or chemical spills. Simple to use. Use one or several portable water to confine and divert spills. PVC covered barriers are easily cleaned and reused. Outer cover manufactured from 650gsm PVC which is resistant to most oils and chemicals. Bright yellow outer cover provides high visibility Water weight prevents the barrier from moving and helps seal the barrier against irregular concrete or bitumen. Use one or more barriers overlapped (with joiner) to contain larger or widely-spread spills. PVC is easy to repair if damaged. Australian made Sand filled PVC or urethane barriers are also available. The early stages of a spill clean up are the most critical. Global Spill & Safety’s containment barriers safely control, contain and prevent spills from entering stormwater or drainage systems.
